I really don't know. IUPAC should organise themselves.nosadness said:i agree to the benzyl ethene, its a systematic name
Dreamerish, can u confirm on the poly is called phenyl ethene?
or is the common name for benzyl ethene is phenyl ethene
Look up, I already answered that question. Phenylethene is not the polymer name.nosadness said:yea, but the benzene ring is a sub-group or what ever it is called!
can anyone tell me what phenyl ethene is? i am sure its the polymer or the common name
ARR~` IT'S NOT BLOODY BENZYL ETHENEnosadness said:from a site it says the when a hydrogen is replace by a phenyl group in ethene then its called phenyl ethene.
going by this logic, benzene is part of the phenyl group, so benzyl ethene is right!

Apparently he (Captain_pi) put a 'clause' or something on it that we have to agree to, ie. we're not allowed to distribute it outside our chem class Bad luck, haha.Anthrax said:maybe share them with us

I just went and checked macmillan, it doesn't say anything. Surfing Chemistry says ethenyl benzene. So far all the textbooks agree and so does google.
